SUMMARY:Books in the Brewery Sunday Session - Albany
DESCRIPTION:The Perfect Sunday Afternoon\nLooking for a way to cap off your weekend that isn’t just “watching Netflix on the couch”? \nAfter a string of sold-out events in Perth\, the team at Books in the Brewery is heading south. Known for creating casual\, fun events for readers that ditch the formal vibes for something much more relaxed and usually with a cheeky drink or two. \nSo grab your Locals Only Lager\, order some lunch from the kitchen\, and settle in for an engaging afternoon with four of WA’s most celebrated authors. No dull interview here\, just great storytellers having a chat about great stories right in the heart of Albany. \nThe Talent\nWe’ve assembled an incredible lineup of West Australian storytellers\, featuring: \nMolly Schmidt: Albany’s own and winner of the City of Fremantle Hungerford Award for her stunning debut\, Salt River Road. \nLouise Wolhuter: Winner of the 2025 WA Premier’s Fiction Book of the Year for her compelling psychological mystery\, Shadows of Winter Robins. \nKate Emery: WA Premier’s Book Award winner and author of the sharp\, witty mysteries My Family and Other Suspects and A Murder is Going Down. \nAlexander Thorpe: WA Premier’s Award-shortlisted author of the Mendicant Monk mysteries\, “cosy historical crime” novels set right here in WA. \nWhat’s in Store?\nThe Panel: Pull up a chair for an easygoing chat about the “art of a good yarn.” Our authors will explore why we tell stories and where the spark begins—whether it’s pulled from real-life moments\, a favourite TV show\, or the unique nature of living and writing in Western Australia. \nThe Q&A: Your chance to join the conversation. Ask about their creative process\, their favourite local haunts\, or even the best way to murder someone (strictly in a fictional sense\, of course). \nStory Bites: Enjoy short\, atmospheric readings as the authors share a few of their favourite moments from some of their favourite books. \nBook Sales & Signings: Our friends at Paperbarks Bookshop will be on-site with a pop-up shop so you can browse the titles and get your copies signed by the panel. \nDon’t Miss the Boat\nBooks in the Brewery events are famous for filling up fast. While entry for this special Albany event is free\, seats at Wilson’s are strictly limited. Secure your ticket today to ensure you have a spot for a Sunday full of great beer\, brilliant books\, and even better company. \nA Note for the Locals:\nThe kitchen will be pumping out its usual legendary menu\, so we recommend arriving early to get your food order in and snag a prime table before the panel kicks off!
